Ron Paul: 300 (Electoral Votes) - Tea Party 07
Inspired by PotheadPundit's Ron Paul video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtXjm77Wo4k
More than anything, this video was meant to be funny. If you don't know who Ron Paul is, watch this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIivoqLbeeg
Glenn Beck had a fair hour-long interview with RP on 12/18, so just picture someone from Fox in his place.
The MS Sam voice is kind of hard to understand at times, so I'll just write it all out:
"We libertarians descended from Thomas Jefferson himself. Taught never to be censored, never to surrender. Taught that freedom in the USA is the greatest glory he could achieve in his life."
"Be afraid! Ron Paul will burn to the ground!"
"A thousand mainstream media outlets descend upon you! Our lies will blot out your campaign!"
"...then we will raise more money."
"You're basically saying we should take our marching orders from Al-Qauda if they want us off the Arabian Peninsula and we should leave--"
"No!! I'm saying we should take our marching orders from our Constitution!"
"A new age is coming....an age of freedom! And all will know that Ron Paul supporters gave their last breath to defend it!"
"...but you know, if anybody wants to believe that they are the descendents of a primate, I don't know how--"
"Tonight....we dine....in The White House!"
